Digital Performer 5 arriving today!

Oh, boy...

I've been checking the MOTU website every couple days since NAMM, and was there the first minute they started taking orders for DP 5. Heck, my copy was shipped before I even got the e-mail telling me it was available!

So the upgrade is arriving today, and I'm stoked. A new DP is always a treat, but this one comes with six new software instruments, including a drum module with hundreds of samples.. can't wait. And it does all kinds of cool big-time Hollywood stuff for scoring, like generating "streamers" and other visual cues that help players stay on track. Schweet!

I don't how many (if any) of you guys use DP, but this is almost as much fun as getting a new guitar for me. "Oh, stop, wait a minute, Mr. UPS Man...."

Note to vocalist: "... Mr U-P-S man" doesn't scan very well.
Be sure to sing as "... Mr Ups man..."
